Mission to Wealth Chapter 15
The atmosphere inside the building is bustling with visitors. Gibson and Calista, who are also present, choose to find comfortable seats to sit."Calista, why did we come here?" Gibson asks as they sit in a corner of the room.Calista smiles, her mind returning to the previous night when she received information that Gibson's ex-mother-in-law was attending an antique auction. Calista had just learned that the woman had a liking for antiques."Of course, I came here for you, Gibson."Gibson furrows his brow, not understanding Calista's words at all. "For me? What do you mean?"Calista smiles again, her gaze searching for a middle-aged woman she wants to outbid and embarrass."You'll find out soon enough, Gibson, just follow my lead," Calista grins, making Gibson slightly apprehensive about what she has planned.A few moments later, an auctioneer takes the stage that had been prepared before the event began."Good afternoon, everyone," the auctioneer greets everyone in the room. It's cl
Mission to Wealth Chapter 16
The residence of the Kiara family appeared calm and quiet. Only a middle-aged man with fair, milky white skin was visible. He was resting, reclined on a soft sofa with his legs slightly bent.There were still faint and muted groans, as the man continued to endure the pain that was gradually subsiding.Yes, just a few hours ago, this man, who was around 50 years old, had been in a rather serious accident. The person he had collided with was now in the hospital, and he had to cover the medical expenses. Not only that, but he also had to bear the cost of the damages to the victim's car, which he had rear-ended."Argh! What a terrible day," he grumbled while holding his head, which still throbbed from the impact of the accident.As he was complaining with his throbbing head, a notification sound from his mobile phone interrupted him. He quickly grabbed his phone, unlocked it, and read the incoming notification.His eyes widened, and his heart raced when he saw the amount of $35,000 displa

Calista lifted the corner of her lips, forming a deadly smile as she watched a family from afar facing problems."You've seen it yourself, Gibson, they're paying quite a price, aren't they?"Gibson didn't like Kiara's attitude, how easily she turned away from her marriage for money. But he wasn't a cruel man, not to the point of denying people the chance to realize their mistakes."What are you thinking, Gibson? This is just a small payback," Calista stepped into the car. Gibson had been visibly unhappy with her actions since earlier."Isn't this going too far, Calista? I am angry and disappointed with Kiara, but..."Calista put her index finger on Gibson's lips. "Enough, Gibson, you're too kind, their family has insulted you, and it won't make them homeless."Calista didn't want to hear more of Gibson's, in her opinion, overly kind words towards Kiara's family.They decided to head back to Calista's house with their driver at the wheel, as Calista wouldn't let Gibson drive. Throughou

Gibson and Calista were still at the café when the lights dimmed slightly. Several candles were lit, and the melody of a piano began to fill the air. Calista was surprised by the sudden change in ambiance, especially when the nearby fountain started its mesmerizing display. "Wow, did you see that? The fountain is amazing! I didn't think there would be a fountain in this café. From the outside, it looks so simple, but it's incredibly luxurious inside," Calista exclaimed with a joyful smile. As a few people started descending to the dance floor, they began dancing to the rhythm of the piano. Calista couldn't stop smiling as she watched the scene unfold. Gibson, on the other hand, got up from his seat and knelt in front of Calista. "Calista, would you like to dance with me?" Gibson asked with hope in his eyes. Calista was overwhelmed with happiness and could hardly contain her excitement. "Gibson... I didn't think I could dance here. I'm shy," she admitted. "Why be shy? No one will

Illegal racing was attended by several gangs, each of them sending their champion as participants. The lineup of big motorcycles had been modified to produce various distinct sounds, ranging from smooth to extremely loud. Gibson, who wasn't accustomed to this atmosphere, furrowed his brow, showing his disapproval. He turned to Calista, who appeared enthusiastic and spirited. She even took off her blouse to wave it in support of her friend about to race. Gibson, surprised, grabbed Calista's hand and took her blouse, covering her up as she was wearing only a tank top, revealing her figure. "Why?" protested Calista, looking annoyed. "Why did you take it off? Aren't you embarrassed being seen by so many people?" Gibson asked, instructing Calista to put it back on. Calista, pouting, reluctantly complied and put her blouse back on. "Your boyfriend, huh? He's really protective," whispered Calista's friend sitting beside her. "Don't be nosy," replied Calista, not wanting to reveal Gibson

Calista fell silent upon hearing Gibson's words. For some reason, her heart was pounding uncontrollably. The quiet atmosphere made them even more awkward. Calista glanced out of the car window and rolled it down, letting the breeze caress her face. "It's already late at night; it's a shame to go home now," Calista said, realizing that it was already midnight. Time passed quickly, and they didn't realize how much time they had spent together. Gibson heard Calista's words and immediately got an idea. "Calista... would you like to vent your anger from earlier?" Gibson asked, making Calista turn to him in confusion. "What do you mean?" Gibson smiled broadly and fastened his seatbelt. "Buckle up, we're going now!" Gibson said as he started the car. Confused, Calista followed Gibson's command and closed her window. "Where are we going, anyway?" Calista asked, curious. "It's a secret! You can sleep if you're tired," Gibson said, glancing briefly at Calista before focusing on driving
Mission to Wealth Chapter 21
In a hospital, Gibson and Calista are currently talking to a doctor."The patient's post-operative recovery is going well. Their health is improving day by day."Strict security measures are in place in Mrs. Henny's room, allowing only doctors and double-paid nurses to enter.Calista and Gibson excuse themselves after the doctor who's treating Mrs. Henny explains what needs to be avoided to ensure the patient's recovery."Thank you," Gibson says, gazing at Calista intently. "You've saved Mrs. Henny, I wouldn't know where to find such a large loan.""We're in this together, Gibson, now whatever your problems are, they're mine too."Gibson invites Calista to sit on a park bench before going back into Mrs. Henny's room. Gibson is deeply indebted to Calista. She's covered everything from the surgery costs to the room. It's no small expense for Gibson."Are we just going to sit here in silence?" Calista tries to ease her nervousness around Gibson. She can't withstand his intense gaze."I d

"I'm sorry, Sandara, the skincare brand has decided that Calista is a better fit as their brand ambassador."Sandara, who was getting ready to go on stage for her event, became furious upon hearing her assistant's response."No way! How can that be? Just last week, the management said I was the chosen one!" Sandara no longer cared about the event and demanded an explanation from her assistant."That's the reality, Sandara. They canceled unilaterally last night because... umm, well, it's because..." Sandara's assistant hesitated, fearing to reveal the rest of the information that might upset her."Spit it out! I'm beautiful, professional, what more do they need?""Well... it's because you've had a lot of scandalous news, and the management is worried it might affect their products."Sandara pushed her assistant, frustrated once again that she was losing to Calista. What made Calista so special that all beauty products were lining up to have her as their label?"Sandara! Remember, you'r
